Kenny Easterday(1973-2016)

Kenny Easterday was born in 1974 in West Aliquippa, Pennsylvania with only half a spine, a condition known as sacral agenesis. When he was six months old both of his underdeveloped legs were amputated and the bones were used to reconstruct his spine. He gained some notoriety following the 1988 release of the Canadian movie The Kid Brother (1988), in which he played a fictionalized version of himself. The film developed a small "cult" following in Canada, the US and the UK. To this day, Easterday refuses to use a prosthesis, preferring to walk on his hands or roll around on a skateboard. He was married at the age of 19 to an able-bodied woman named Sarah and often appears on camera as a messenger on The Jerry Springer Show.
